Description

The Perfections leading to Enlightenment is now published and is available to order via amazon in US and UK. The Perfections is a study of the ten good qualities: generosity, morality, renunciation, wisdom, energy, patience, truthfulness, determination, loving-kindness, and equanimity. It shows when they are considered perfections and what hinders them. It shows the importance of developing them in daily life and how their cultivation is essential for the complete eradication of all defilements. Many quotes are used from the the original scriptures of Theravada Buddhism and for precision of understanding some PÄli terms are used. The author is a prolific writer and broadcaster of Buddhist scriptures and has had several books published worldwide.
